During the day, Saint Jose visited all the factories and construction sites in Maria City. The size of the entire town has already increased 5-6 times compared with the previous year. The population is large, but there are also some sequelae of excessive development and expansion.
Saint Jose planned to have a good talk with Covo, but was rejected. Saint Jose was speechless and shook his head, not quite understanding.
His current attempts to repair his relationship with Kovo seem to have failed.
This guy Kovo isn't really trying to get his son to run for mayor. That's ridiculous.
It was night at Rosa's house, and the two little guys had fallen asleep peacefully. [space]
"Cohen, you will stay in Maria Town for a few days this time."
Rosa leaned on Cohen's shoulder, looking shy.
"I have to leave in about three days, so I took four days off."
Saint Jose looked at the calendar and turned around and said, except for the two weekends, there were a total of 6 days.
The establishment of Maya Chemical Industry also depends on the fact that the fertilizer plant is almost completed. Simply producing chemical fertilizers, explosives, and plastics cannot form a good development momentum. A comprehensive chemical group is the future development direction.
This is his base camp, and Covo has already begun to expand the police department and is preparing to kick the original militia troops out of the defense order of Maria City.
Maria Town is developing too fast, so we have to come here to hammer it out and take a look at the development results here.
"This guy Kovo is a little dishonest, ugh."
Saint Jose sighed helplessly. The town of Maria continued to expand rapidly. This guy Covo has been doing all kinds of things recently, trying to pick peaches, and this guy Constantine is not very good at showing up, so he can only ask the boss by the way. Take action.
"The mayor of Covo, not Mr. Mayor, is indeed a little wrong. He also expanded the city council and tried to make several large factories pay more taxes."
"This guy is a little bit lost."
Saint Jose was not afraid of enemies, but hated traitors the most. In his opinion, Kovo betrayed this rule.
Whether it's love or shopping, this is his bottom line.
He can even forgive those enemies who want to kill him, as long as they do not infringe on his interests, but he can never forgive those traitors who try to get rid of them.
Some of his principles can be seen from his treatment of Rooney and the traitor Cruise of the Byrd Brotherhood. The Byrd Brotherhood just offended him. He even heard about ridiculous bounties, but he laughed them off and only used legal ones. He rarely executes his enemies personally unless there is a threat to his life.
He has been kind enough to the former traitor Cruz. According to his principles, such a person should be shot directly instead of being sent to South Africa to mine. Although there is almost no possibility of survival,
Because the enemy either has his own master or has no choice but to be a traitor, but the traitor is absolutely ambitious.
A person who can betray even his family and friends, a person who can even kill the person next to him, is definitely more ruthless than you can imagine.
Countless histories have proven that these betrayed people are the biggest and most hateful enemies.
"What he has done recently is indeed a bit excessive. If it doesn't work, just let him step down. Having been the mayor for so many years is enough. As for General Tomps's opinion, it is just like that. If he settles down in a bad situation, he will close it if he doesn't see any improvement. Reaching out randomly.”
Saint Jose said to himself.
It didn't matter that Covo had made some small moves at first. It happened that the town of Maria was about to change its leadership. It would be enough to replace him with one of his own as the mayor. Moreover, Kovo's ability was just that. The development of Maria City needed a more capable mayor. long.
"Rosa, what do you think about Cross being mayor?"
Rosa, who lived in front of the dressing table, whispered in her ear.
Cross was his first factory director, and his ability was pretty good. He had been in the province for more than ten years, and he did a pretty good job in the Maria Committee. Under his leadership, the beverage factory did pretty well. It's OK.
He had also thought about looking for someone to cooperate with him in the past, but in the end it was still not as effective as his own people, and they were not necessarily reliable. He needed a large enough team. As for qualifications, he arranged to join the Radical Party, directly run for town council members, and then campaign to canvass votes. That’s it.
"I'd better not express my opinion on this." Rosa thought about it seriously and felt that it was not appropriate for her to express her opinion on this matter. Although this matter related to the development of Maria Town, she only had some relationship with Saint Jose. .
"Well, I'd better discuss this matter with Constantine."
He is still very relieved about Rosa, and Rosa's performance is also good. The two of them get what each other needs.
But he will not trust her blindly. He has also placed many close associates of the Falcon Bureau in the Finance Department. Every bill has been reviewed many times. It can be said that the entire Finance Center has contributed a lot to the development of so many industrial factories. without.
If the only people who can be completely trusted are the core members of the Falcon Bureau, this can be considered a relatively difficult place.
The Falcon Bureau has developed so fast, and it is not that there have been traitors, but as long as they show up, they are basically cleaned out by Guerrero. As for their results, most of them are complete humane destruction.
"Okay, Cohen, it's too late, let's go to bed first."
Rosa put out St. Jose's cigarette, made the bed again, and pulled St. Jose to lie beside the bed.
"Well, it's indeed a bit late."
Saint Jose laughed softly. He had the final say in matters in Maria Town. Covo didn't know how to praise him, so he had no choice but to replace him, even if he had done something good for him.
Such a small town has already been infiltrated by him, and with Constantine here, we might as well let him serve as the director of the police department when the time comes.
Maria Town does need further reform, but it needs to be led by Saint Jose, not the old guy Covo.
He has a lot of evidence of Covo's official crimes in Maria Town.
…
The next day, Prali Food Company headquarters,
"Boss, are you looking for me?"
Cross knocked on the door and entered the office, still acting like the first time the two met, with strong execution.
"Cross, are you interested in being the mayor of Maria Town? No, the mayor."
St. Jose sat Cross in front of him, looked into his eyes, and said a word.
"Boss, are you talking about this Maria Town?"
Cross seemed a little surprised. As mayor, he had not thought about this.
"Yes, just become a councilor or directly run for town mayor. I can help you with everything."
Saint Jose said confidently.
"Boss, what do you want me to do?"
Cross thought for a moment, and it seemed that being the mayor would be a good idea. There was nothing the boss wanted to do that he couldn't do.
"First, resign from the factory. No, I will fire you, and then I will organize a campaign team for you. Do you have any funding problems? I will give you 20 years of dismissal compensation, and then I will prepare for the election next month. .”
Cross is young and powerful, and has rich experience in factory management. What he lacks is at least governance. The only opponent in this election should be Covo. There are not many people worthy of attention in Maria Town. It was originally just a run-down town. .
"In terms of family, if there are any problems, if there is a criminal record, and if there are any career advantages, write them all down and I will arrange them."
"Yes, boss!"
Cross had absolute trust in Saint Jose and agreed without hesitation. If it was a normal company, it would be an incident that would directly drive away the factory elders and consolidate power.
"Let's start changing this title first. From now on, just call me Mr. St. Hesse or Cohen."
"Yes, boss, no, yes, Mr. Saint Jose!"
"Very good, very energetic. Next time I see you, I hope it will be Mayor Cross."
"Okay, Cohen."
Seeing that Cross quickly entered the role, Saint-Jesse asked him to go through the resignation procedures and asked the Finance Department to give him financial compensation of 20 years of salary.
This incident caused an uproar in the Prali factory. The employees discussed whether the boss was trying to kill the donkey and so on. People were a little uneasy. He would definitely not let this opportunity go.
Saint-Jesse Jean-Cross gave a resignation speech at the Mariaville factory, which was a campaign show.
The speech was also prepared by San Jose. In order to take care of the people of San Martin County and many local employees, the Prairie factory is just a vote. The canvassing starts from now.
Cross's speaking skills are good and were tested when he was selling plastic bottle technology in the United States.
"Hello everyone, I am Cross, and I am also the No. 2 employee at Prali Factory. You may be a little confused. I suddenly resigned today. Is it because the boss is planning to lay off the old employees? I can clearly say no."
"Mr. Saint Jose, our boss in Prairie, is the best boss I have ever met in my life. He has a far-sighted vision. Today he said to me, Hey, Cross, do you want to sell sugar water all your life? ?You are 45 years old."
"When I thought about it, it seemed like it, but I really like selling sugar water. I think the Mirinda soda we produce is the best sugar water in the world. It now has 17 flavors and various other new ones. Flavors, this year we have iced tea, Andes milk tea flavors, coffee flavors, isn’t this the best job in the world, creating joy for our customers every day.”
"The boss told me, no, that's not the case. Selling sugar water is of course great, but there is a better job suitable for you. I thought about it. I have done more than ten jobs in my life. At the Prali Factory, I am The most satisfying thing is, do you think it’s good to be at Prali Factory?”
Cross suddenly asked loudly.
"It's great! I love it so much!"
"The boss, Mr. Saint Jose, told me that it was wrong. He said that there is a more important job in Maria Town that is suitable for me. I thought about it and it seems that there is not one."
“The boss finally told me that there are so many people in Maria Town now, but the mayor of Cobo plans to leave Maria Town and go to Cordoba City. Then there is no one better to serve the 150,000 people in Maria Town than me. suitable……"
"So I resigned today and plan to run for the next mayor position of Maria Town to serve the purpose of building a better Maria Town. I like Maria Town very much and moved my family here last year. My sons and daughters all work here, and my son applied for the militia this year. I hope that Maria Town will have a better future."
Cross usually wears a suit and tie, but this time he gave a passionate speech and threw the tie directly on the stage to say goodbye to the past.
"...I used to get up at 6 o'clock every day and arrive at the factory 40 minutes earlier than all employees. I feel that Maria Town really needs a younger and more capable mayor. We need better benefits, better housing, and I want a bigger park and a bigger hospital. I hope everyone will support me as before, and I will be the next mayor of Maria Town!"
The speech lasted for 50 minutes and ended with the sound of bombing the venue. St. Jose turned his resignation speech into a campaign speech.
He has lost confidence in Kovo. As for Kovo's son being the next mayor? How could it be possible? There were also layoffs of the militia and random reforms, all of which violated the interests of Saint Jose, so he wouldn't be polite.
Yesterday morning, he was rejected. Kovo didn't even want to see him anymore. He didn't want such a person. Even sending him in would be considered merciful. But it would be too much to show off his face like this and it was a bit bad. I hope he won't do it. If we go that far, if we really do that, the Radical Party will not agree.
Cross's speech this time was not perfect, and even a little rushed, but the result was actually pretty good. Saint-Jesse recruited several elites from the Falcon Bureau, and also found Keynes, the head of the Radical Party in Kecheng. Thomas.
"Mr Keynes, the specific situation is this, I need the support of the Radical Party, and in return Cross will be a member of the Radical Party."
"Yes, we can provide some help. The faster Maria's side develops, the better." The Radical Party also needs fresh blood. Cohen is a member of General Thomas and the Propaganda Department of the Radical Party. If they can win one more A big economic town would be perfect.
"As for Cordoba, a person like him can't stand it at first glance, but he still wants to run for mayor of Cordoba? You're kidding. As for him and General Tomps being classmates, that's ridiculous. He doesn't deserve it."
In a small town, the newly promoted mayor is not comparable to a major general, and Kovo is a non-party person with average abilities.
"Okay, Mr. Keynes."
This election can also provide St. Jose with some campaign experience. These teams participating in the election will be the campaign team of St. Jose in the future.
Regardless of whether San Jose will serve as a councilor, mayor, or some other position in the future, it is always a good idea to have more contacts.
"Cohen, come to my house for dinner after get off work tonight? This is my home address."
"I'm very happy, so I won't bother you first."
"Okay, I'm a little busy indeed."
Keynes nodded. Saint Jose was not only a favorite of Commander Tomps, but also a well-known young general in the Radical Party. He was also the founder of several factories and even the Import and Export Association. From any angle, he was qualified to win over If you cooperate, it's just a matter of a finger's work.
St. Jose left his office in Keynes and went to Chinatown to visit Old Man Chen. He found out that Old Man Chen had died two days ago due to hypertension and cerebral hemorrhage.
Saint Jose was a little surprised. This old man Chen was only over 50 years old, not even 60. This was outrageous.
"Cohen, there is no need to be sad. My dad has lived enough. Three generations have lived together, and he has lived a long time. Moreover, he was very happy during his lifetime, but there are always accidents in life."
"Brother Chen, my condolences."
St. Jose couldn't help but recall some of the moments when he met Mr. Chen two years ago. He was a little excited when he first met the fellow man from his previous life. Later, it also happened unexpectedly in Chinatown. The clothing and footwear industry was also an industry that he entered along the trend. The overall profit was Not bad actually.
"Then I'll leave first."
Saint Jose left a red envelope before retreating.
"Everyone has misfortune and good fortune. You never know which one will come first, accident or tomorrow. A healthy and strong man like Mr. Chen was sent away by a hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage."
Mr. Chen worked too hard. Because his eldest son and second son both came to Argentina, he worked even harder than before.
I worked hard to plant vegetables under the bright sun, but I took a cold shower at night and my brain blood vessels were broken. I only found out the result the next morning that it was too late.
"Well, parting always makes people sad." Saint Hesse returned to the Purple Flower Apartment and relaxed.
Even though I didn’t have much contact with Old Man Chen and we were still friends, it’s a pity that we left so quickly.
At 6 o'clock in the evening, St. Jose arrived at Cairns' home. The conversation was very pleasant, and the Radical Party also settled the matter.
"Cohen, do you have a girlfriend? It's not bad that I have this cousin. Would you like to introduce me to her?"
"Mr. Keynes, I have a girlfriend, so I don't need an introduction."
"Okay, Cohen, in politics, a good wife is very important."
"Understood, Mr. Keynes."
It was not until eight or nine in the evening that St. Jose returned to the Purple Flower Apartment.
…
In Maria Town, Covo was shocked and angry that Cross was running for mayor.
"Saint Jose, you will never be able to stop me."
Covo really intends to reform the power structure of the town of Maria, and is trying to disrupt the layout of several factories, so he is very disdainful of what Saint Jose has done. He plans to run for mayor of the town of Maria, a small place in the town of Maria. , just leave it to your son to try.
The failure to host Saint-Jesse yesterday was also prevented by Covo Jr. Now there is no room for maneuver. Covo Jr. has never understood the case of young Saint-Jese.
"Saint Jose, do you think you can stop me by creating a new person?"
Kewo smiled disdainfully, it just opened a few factories.
